I've lurked for ages but only fairly recently plucked up the courage to contribute. Noticed the Podcast thread about how it all started and just wondered who is the longest serving member and how many of the first contributors are still here? Might be difficult to find out I guess or maybe not, I'm no expert on these matters!

I am Sparticus

whatsleep · 09/03/2019 13:52

2004 for me

Custardo · 09/03/2019 13:54

2002 i think - it had been going a couple of years

StealthPolarBear · 09/03/2019 13:54

Where is everyone finding the number? Its not in my settings,

MegGriffin · 09/03/2019 13:55

I've been on here since 2006 with a number of name changes.

StealthPolarBear · 09/03/2019 13:55

I mentioned you and rhubarb in my first post but got your name wrong. Am I remembering correctly that you came as a pair or am I getting mixed up with the sweets

BrokenWing · 09/03/2019 13:57

Feb 2004, so just over 15 years with various names. Found it around 3 weeks into BF, struggling and searching for advice.

Knickersononeshead · 09/03/2019 13:58

About 2006 on and off. Different vairents of this name, de-regged for a while, have a few proper name changes so I couldn't be outed.

Went on a couple on MN Xmas meet ups. One when ds was about 4 weeks old. I remember having serious boob leakage that night and I'd stupidly wore a red dress so was very obvious 😳

zukiecat · 09/03/2019 14:06

I've been here 9-10 years

Name changed briefly once

I haven't seen GetOrf, Expat In Scotland, FabbyChic, LaQueen, and oh so many others for ages

They may still be here of course, but with new names

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2019 14:08

Same name here for over 12yrs

People could stalk me if they wanted to and find my life history

But what I’ve posted I don’t mind people knowing

Never ever post anything online that iou don’t want people to know

ALemonyPea · 09/03/2019 14:10

11 years for me, had a couple of namechanges. Joined originally on the SN boards, in the good old days when they weren't trolled and you weren't ridiculed for not doing ABA.

I'm also an ex pram hun. Anyone remember when people flooded onto a pram hun thread to expose a young lady who was buying pram sand slings for her teddy?

Knickersononeshead · 09/03/2019 14:16

@alemonypea I remember babyjj very well!

LiveThisLife · 09/03/2019 14:18

Me

ALemonyPea · 09/03/2019 14:19

Yes that's the one! That was crazy.

Knickersononeshead · 09/03/2019 14:23

And CVQ. That was awful when it all came to light that everything was a load of tosh

SauvignonBlanche · 09/03/2019 14:42

Is AnyFucker not around anymore then? I'm surprised Relationships has lasted then

Don’t panic - I was on the same thread as her a couple of days ago. Grin

StealthPolarBear · 09/03/2019 14:47

Crying very quietly ah yes

Thelieswetelltoourselves · 09/03/2019 14:49

Joined 2007. Loads of name changes

Thelieswetelltoourselves · 09/03/2019 14:51

ALemonyPea i remember!!!

nicenewdusters · 09/03/2019 14:51

Yep, AnyFucker was on a thread a couple of days ago. Queen of the pithy comment.

JellySlice · 09/03/2019 14:59

About 17 years, I think, and umpteen name changes. Must get a life. My registration number is in the five thousands.

IIRC your reg no is somewhere in the account details section.

Peridot1 · 09/03/2019 14:59

Hi BIWI - yes - attempted a few Bootcamps!

Stealth - yes I was Buda and then a variation involving Cider.

I remember CVQ too. I got completely sucked in on that one.

snozzlemaid · 09/03/2019 15:00

I joined in 2001 when dd was born. My user number is 5556.
Lurked for many years. Still don't post too much now but do enjoy seeing what's going on.

Elderflower14 · 09/03/2019 15:24

Eleven years here. Lots of name changes!!!

mentallyfacked · 09/03/2019 16:16

Around the 10 year mark, always on and off, multiple name changes and new accounts as I forget literally every single friggin password... for everything.
